TWENTY YEAR TRUTH

My Silver Spears, Swords
have armed Me
against the upheaval
of The World Economy
against The Super Bugs
of Hospital Rooms
& They have enabled Me
to sing out Their Praises
in The Enclosure
of My
Edge

This brought to mind
Do not ask why
Sting’s
“They Dance Alone”
I tried to find it on YouTube
But none of the versions
I found
Would Play
I don’t know what this is, but I like Sting.
It seems to be working at the moment. Perhaps there was too much traffic when I tried before.
Thank you for this, Ben. It’s a song I have never heard before.
Sad but beautiful, non?
How did you relate it to My Swords (of Light?)
As I said
“This brought to mind
Do not ask why …”
Perhaps I should have said instead “I have no idea why”. Serendipity?
Oh, I thought Do not ask why was part of the title.
Sorry if I sound a bit dense periodically.
I believe in Serendipity.
“Sorry if I sound a bit dense periodically.”
I could ask the same thing:)
“I believe in Serendipity.”
I was assuming that already.
Well, however our dialogue comes out, I appreciate your interest in my work.
